New York / Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1990. Hardcover. VG- (First page carries lavish signature of former architect-designer owner; dj has small tear at top front; edges of book block have some instances of faint foxing; page surfaces are clean.). Light green paper boards with dark green cloth spine, gilt letters on spine, canary & illus. dust jacket, 260 pp. "In 1898, the then unknown Ebenezer Howard proposed an experimental community as the alternative to huge, teeming cities. small, planned 'garden cities' girdled by greenbelts were to serve as the 'master key' to a higher, more cooperative stage of civilization based on ecologically balanced communities. Howard soon founded an international planning movement which ever since has represented a remarkable blend of accommodation to and protest against urban changes and the rise of the suburbs. For nearly a century the Garden City movement has actively participated in an ongoing debate about the future of the modern city." (dj).
